Depression Clinical Trial
Official title:
Computer-based Treatment of Dysfunctional Beliefs in Depressive Inpatients
The aim of the present study is to investigate whether confronting depressive patients with their dysfunctional core beliefs via a computer program results in a reduction of the patients' dysfunctional beliefs. Patients will be presented with a virtual agent confronting them with their dysfunctional core beliefs (e.g. "You are worthless"). Participants will be instructed to contradict these virtual agents (e.g. "That's not true, I'm a wonderful person").
